I've been toying with the idea of swapping my 5.0 for a 7.4 in a 96 K1500,
I was going back and forth on the 8.1 or the 7.4 but have now settled on the 7.4.
I'm running a 0411 computer and have been looking for a factory combo that used the 0411 with the 7.4 but have not came across one yet. I have read on the different forms that it has been done but just have not located the correct truck to pull the tune from.
The next issue will be the wiring harness, I picked up the harness and computer from the donor truck but it is from a 98 with the extra plug on the passenger firewall of which the 96 does not have. I can use the injector harness from the 98 harness but that is about it. I may just mod my harness since its already repined for the 0411, suggestions anyone?
I'll start tearing down the motor and checking things out soon as I get some time. I plan to install the ZZ502 cam and replace the injectors once tore down.
Anyone familiar with this swap that can offer any items that I need to address before I get deep into the install?
